Why choose Total Fire Protection?

Survey – If you require more than one unit, we will survey your property and find the alarm(s) and installation method best suited to your facility’s needs.

Tamper Resistant – We will ensure that your alarm is tamper proof immediately upon activation.

Joint Alarms (Optional) -We also sell and install joint Smoke/CO alarms that will give you dual protection against fires and Carbon Monoxide leaks.

If your alarm is chirping or reaching the end of its 5-year life, it needs to be replaced. A malfunctioning or old alarm is just as bad as no alarm at all.

Relevant Code:

NFPA 72 –Requires smoke detectors to be, at a minimum, present in any sleeping area. (Nationally)
LL 112 & 75 – Requires battery operated alarms to be replaced at least once every 5 years or once the manufacturer’s suggested lifespan has passed. (New York City)
